Trefilia Capital
Trefilia Capital was established in 2013 by Jesús Viejo and Cristina Barragán. The firm manages the family’s capital derived from long-term stakes in Arca Continental together with real-estate assets operated under Grupo Convex and Termas de San Joaquín. Capital is deployed across direct operating-company ownership, lower-middle-market buyouts, and seed-to-Series A venture funds. Allocations span public equities, private equity, real estate, and secondaries. Geographic reach covers Mexico, other Latin American markets, and the United States. No specific external portfolio holdings are disclosed in available materials. The team includes five named executives who handle investment strategy, operations, and portfolio management. Adjacent vehicles comprise the Trefilia Foundation and CORDEM A.B.P. No dated operational events from the last 24 months appear in public sources. Governance centers on family principals who retain board seats at Arca Continental and related operating companies, creating direct oversight of both legacy assets and new deployments.
